    Maybe the real issue is Woodruff isn't ready for the HOF quite yet? It’s way way way way way too early to gloat in regards to woody there good sir.
  2. Brew crew 92
    You should probably just stop. Seriously. The real issue? Good grief. Last week Mark Attanasio was PT Barnum. Wasn’t actually my comment. But that’s ok mr snapper. I guess I’m the only one besides Pina that thinks that, huh. This game really nothing to do with my comment, going on 2 yrs now observation.

    Velo down, not surprised.
  4. Brew crew 92
    There is a good start to burying this team!
  5. Brew crew 92
    The real issue is the crews inability, when ahead early, to not pour it on, coast if you will, till opponent comes back to make the game too close for comfort. Happening this year again, like last year, far too often. Need to start burying these teams.
  6. Brew crew 92
    He hasn’t pitched in a while, hopin he settles in and can give us 2 or 3 good innings. I still Think he can be a valuable weapon out of the pen.

    Cubs bringing back basically the same position players for the 4th yr in a row a mistake. They as a unit, regressing. Theo should of traded SOME of his position players for pitching and different everyday players. Either you go up, or down, never stay the same. They on there way down.

    Agree^^ Let him hit AAA till past S 2, trade Thames(prob have to eat 3-4 mil). Plenty of ABs for Hiura, Team better vs LHP. Save 2-3 mil. Hiura gains valuable experience for next year. Unless Thames does something, anything, no one is going to want him whether we pay most of his salary or not. The guy has become dead weight. Ok release then

    Not trying to call you out, I've heard this before from other posters too, but I'm just curious what's different about the Brewers that makes this true for them and not other teams? I know you didn't ask me but I think there is a viable explanation. Supposedly a lot of agents have anonymously said that Stearns is a great guy but that he's among the most strict in all of baseball in terms of having a price that he's willing to meet and sticking to it. So if Kimbrel is waiting for teams to improve their offer, that means the Brewers are probably out. We can debate the merits of that approach all we want ("they need him more now, so they should increase their offer") but there are long-term negotiating benefits that go with earning that reputation. Agree. Stearns discipline with regards to price/value/affordability eliminates kimbrel from signing with the crew imho. Unless mark A steps in, which I don’t think he will. And one last thing, IF kimbrel’s Healthy, just the fact that he won’t sign a pillow deal, tells me everything I need to know about his LACK of burning desire to pitch, and or lack of confidence in his ability to have a great year to get that contract that he feels he deserves.

    Agree, we don’t HAVE TO trade for anyone right now, but it would be nice to have one more experienced high leverage arm in our pen. But I would also imagine the price to be sky high for said arm.

  14. Brew crew 92
    If he takes a little longer, fine. You make due ... just as they have. Houser was terrific last night in his first AAA start, and has lined himself up to make an impact either in the rotation or the pen later. Another power arm. Agree, make due it will have to be. Gonna be tough for stearns to get high leverage arm by trade this early in season. Kimbrel ain’t happinin. We have good arms waiting down below, gonna be interesting to see what happens.
  15. Brew crew 92
    With jeffress issues and not able to afford kimbrel, stearns in a tough spot. Giants under the illusion they can win so they not gonna sell right now. How many teams at this early point in season would sell? Miami? Baltimore? Toronto? Kansas City? White Sox? Detroit? Texas?
  16. Brew crew 92
    After listening to Jeffress’s interview with bill michaels, I’m not too optimistic regarding jj. Not too difficult to read between the lines: Velo down Not sure when he’ll be back Not enough time in offseason for his arm to rest.
  17. Brew crew 92
    He's slated to pitch for the Missions today. Thanks for the update.
  18. Brew crew 92
    Any word on jeffress and when he starting rehab with San Antonio?
  19. Brew crew 92
    Why bring up players and surgeries of a earlier era that has no real relevance to Nelson? Agree that crew should take it easy and slow with jimmy. June be great, prob wouldn’t have innings restrictions.
  20. Brew crew 92
    In regards to Nelson, I think enough of us saw his velo touch 95 and devastating breaking stuff to know that WHEN he’s back he should be as good as ever. The when is obviously the question. The tighter break on his breaking stuff is why his elbow was so sore and according to jimmy once he works thru this “pause” he should be good to go. He said shoulder isn’t even an issue anymore. The only ace I proclaimed is Burnes for this year. Other two TOR POTENTIAL.
  21. Brew crew 92
    I obviously disagree with most of what you said. Woodruff’s “deep arsenal of pitches” with “decent control” is half right in my opinion, Agree with his arsenal of pitches but think you underrate his command. TOR potential this year. Burnes has more than 2 pitches NOW, he said after his start against cards, he chose to go with two pitches cause of how strong they were. He’ll work them in like he did against the blue jays in final exhibition game. Only thing keeping Burnes from being an ace now is in my opinion he’s around the plate TOO MUCH. TOR/ACE this year. Peralta just needs to pitch. He didn’t throw much from the stretch yesterday because of course he retired 20 in a row, but seemed to do alright against Puig. When he has command he’s unhittable, and I’m willing to accept a few clunkers till he improves said command. TOR potential. I think your seriously underrating our pitchers and your dislike of me and my posts are potentially clouding your judgement.
  22. Brew crew 92
    You can pump your own brakes, put your head in the sand if you want, I’ll choose to go with what I see and hear. You can gloat at your own peril in regards to Nelson, (“when will we learn”) all you want. But from what I’ve read and heard and been told by a few on this board he’s Pitching in extended ST to build up his arm and will pitch with the big club at some point sooner rather than later. I’m fairly confident your opinion is in the minority with respect to our staff being special. Our trio had “Talent” last year BEFORE pitching lights out in the pennant race and playoffs. I don’t need TIME to show me Burnes Woody Peralta are special, their special NOW. And Davies is Davies, a pretty good #5. Add Nelson Anderson Houser Brown and I’ll go to war with those 9 any day.
  23. Brew crew 92
    The days of questioning ANY transaction by our front office are over for me. At worst it’s experienced left handed depth stashed, at best you could be right and maybe we see something again that can be adjusted or tweaked.
  24. Brew crew 92
    That was me and I agree. It was kind of out of place in the Yelich thread but that's where the conversation went when I compared the type of prospect-for-rental-veteran trades they used to make to the Yelich trade. Love the shift in organizational philosophy - don't hug your prospects too much, but don't give away surplus value for rentals. Small markets just can't operate on expensive rentals and negative surplus value. Yeah, some of those trades will work out in the short term, but if that's your M.O., then you're all but assuring mediocrity or worse in the long run because you will lose some of those trades badly. I do love this trio but I'm not ready to bet on this top be a top NL rotation yet. It would be extraordinarily unusual for a trio that young to not hit some rough stretches. Liquidate all your assets and bet all you got on this rotation. Sure all pitchers go thru rough stretches(with exceptions being degrom scherzer) but this starting staff special. And with a healthy Nelson, deeper than ALL of NL rotations including Mets.
  25. Brew crew 92
    No need to worry about things like this completely out of the franchise's control. Just enjoy watching the Ls keep piling up. Agree. They need more than kimbrel to overtake the crew. I think they’ve tuned out Maddon, and his antics to try and keep the team loose. Not sure he’s gonna make it thru the year.
